From the collectionof Grorer Hrepert, Esq. where it has flowered, and ripened seeds, for se- 
veral years. Wild specimens are preserved in the Banksian Herbarium for Protea Conocarpa, but 
that species has much larger foliage with less flowers, which it has never yet to my knowledge pro- 
duced in this country.
